April had A LOT of good releases. A few underground gems like Prisoner (Blackened Hardcore), Asira (Progressive Black Metal), Never Prey (Beatdown/Death Metal) or But The Shadows Have Foes (Crust/Post-Metal) have a spot on my list. Some well known bands as Enterprise Earth, Deez Nuts, Loathe, While She Sleeps and New Found Glory did an amazing job with their new efforts. The other bands that I have on my list are:
Virulent Depravity
No Zodiac (HUGE ALBUM, GIVE IT A SPIN BECAUSE IT'S THE HEAVIEST SHIT YOU WILL HEAR THIS MONTH. Actually is my AOTM)
Decades Of Deception
All For Nothing
The Korea
Steps Of Odessa
Refuge
Artifical Brain
No Omega
The Willow
Ghost Bath
Uneven Structure
Your Chance To Die
Warpath
Of Sound and Fury
Shadow Of Intent (My second favorite album of the month)
Friday Giants

I'm honestly surprised that Gorillaz have no votes, with that being said, my vote had to be between digital druglord and You are We, You are we took it simply because I had more ear worms from that album, but both were honestly very solid.

Okay, this was really close between While She Sleeps and He Is Legend, I decided to go with the latter. Here's my full list, it's not quite as long as last month's but it was by no means a bad month for releases. I'm re-posting again because there was some stuff missing that I felt shouldn't be missing.

Top 25 Albums:

He Is Legend – Few

While She Sleeps – You Are We
Deep Purple – Infinite

Artificial Language – The Observer

Top 5 EPs:

Saint Slumber – Youth//1

Eternity Forever probably would have gotten my vote if it had been on the list but I'm totally fine with giving it to He Is Legend.

Those are my top 3, wasn't a top 5 because nothing else really caught my attention. He Is Legend did an amazing job on their new album, but nothing will ever beat I am Hollywood. That album killed it back in the day. I can't wait till June, That month is gonna be my month for music so far this year. I was a huge eighteen visions fan back in the day and I still am. I can't wait for that, Miss May I, In Hearts Wake, Rise Against, and Currents. May Looks like it's gonna be a pretty decent month as well. While she sleeps new album is amazing, that's why i voted for it for april. They never disappoint
